I am about to complete my project of a virtual tour consisiting of 35 zones.

We have a ultra large video wall on which I demonstrated the progress. One of the ideas was to automate the entire tour.

Say, the tour starts from the entrance of the building, goes to the next region turns around, shows everything and proceeds to the next room..and so on... Also if this is possible, we want to combine the virtual tour along with some signage info, and play it as a loop during publicty..

Hi Andrew!

Are you sure it works only with Pano2VR panos? I ordered it today - tried the trial by using my .swf generated with APT and PTP.DoesnÂ´t work . . black screen.In my mind a .swf is a .swf . . what makes the difference to APT/PTP?

IÂ´m, a bit stressed now - have to get an automat tour ready on Friday.

Do i have to generate each node as one or do i have to generate all nodes together?What settings to use in P2VR to have it run in 360 like the example?IÂ´m a bit confused how to use it for making the automaticc tour . . ;-)

Not sure. It worked when I did a little trial.

The SWF files must be in same directory/folder.

Must i set autorotation in P2VR or in the 360app?

When I did a little trial I didn't set autorotation in Pano2VR.

IÂ´ll do a screenshot - looks a bit different from your panel.

OK - show me.

Not sure what you mean - in which program and in which settings dialogue are you setting this 'cut size' to 512?

In AutopanoTour beneath the cubic-size you have the cutting-size for multires. I always use 512 for my 10000px width images.

best, Klaus

Errrr... you have to use Pano2VR to create the SWF files for use with 360panogallery.

Note these recommendations from the comments in the 360panogallery XML file.

Generate your panos with Pano2VR with the following considerations: a) Use "Scaling With Window" b) Use 50 FPS for Frame Rate c) Use Autorotate and specify zero seconds for delay d) Generate your panoramas for Flash 9/10

Hey Andrew!

I know that - but: whatÂ´s the diference between a APT-swf and a P2Vr-swf? When i embed all data in the .swf there should be no difference at all . .

I got P2Vr right now - first tests didnÂ´t work with 360pano . . i contacted Arturo already.
